LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #6 - October 2020

I was hoping to have posted about this last Thursday, but it took a while for my box to arrive. There was an issue with some people’s subscriptions and it mean’t some orders were not generated for existing subscribers. The issue was corrected and I have now received my box. Last month’s box was the Birthday Edition and this month we have the Retreat Edition with an indigo themed box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £58.00 altogether!

Here is what I received this month:-

GLOV Hair Wrap

| £14.99 |

This hair towel is made of from microfibres, which means it is gentler for your hair. I use a hair wrap towel every time I wash my hair, so this will come in very handy. I usually prefer darker colour towels as white ones look grubby after a while.

| Full Size - £14.99 |

ECOOKING Overnight Foot Cream

| 30ml - £8.10 |

This foot cream is supposed to remove dead skin as well as moisturise. It works best overnight and it is recommend that you wear socks over the cream. It contains Eucalyptus and Menthol to soothe and cool the skin. I received two little 15ml jars of the cream. The scent reminds me a lot of Vicks VapoRub. I’m not really into foot creams or body creams in general, although I do use hand cream, but I will give it ago. Luckily the 30ml amount came in two separate jars, so I can always give one away.

| Full Size: 100ml - £26.00 |

BY TERRY Baume De Rose Flaconnette

| 2.3g - £14.00 |

This lip balm is infused with shea butter, rose flower wax and Vitamin E. It should glide onto your lips and provide nourishment with a subtle shine. This was the September Sneak Peak item. I am into using a heavier lip product at night before bed. I use a light solid wax SPF lip balm during the day and then a thicker oil/cream based lip balm in the evening. I am excited to give this a go once I have finished up my Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Lip Oil Crystal Elixir.

| Full Size: 7ml - £32.50 |

BEAUTY PRO Eye Therapy Under Eye Mask

| 1 pair - £4.25 |

This eye mask is a soothing and cooling treatment to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and reduce dark circles and puffiness. I quite like eye masks and I can’t wait to give this one a go. Some BB subscribers may have received the STARSKIN Smoothing Bio-Cellulose Second Skin Eye Catcher Mask instead of this one.

| Full Size: 3 pairs - £4.95 |

Bubble T Earl Grey Bath Tea

| 100g - £5.99 |

These bath salts are supposed to relieve aches and pains whilst leaving you feeling relaxed. This is a limited edition blend in partnership with LookFantastic. I prefer showers to baths and I can’t actually remember the last time I had a bath! I will probably not use these salts, but I have heard very good things about bath salts in general.

| Full Size: 100g - £5.99 |

Balance Me Bakuchiol Serum

| 7ml - £11.00 |

This facial serum should provide anti-ageing benefits without sensitivity and irritation. It should also give you a smoother texture, enhanced collagen production and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The main ingredient, Bakuchiol is 100% plant based and is an alternative to retinol. I have tried a few different serums this year and I now have another one to test. I actually quite like testing them, but I haven’t re-purchased one I have tried yet though because there are so many interesting ones available, some are also highly expensive!

| Full Size: 30ml - £32.00 |

This was kind of a boring box for me, not really worth the extra wait for it. I am excited to try out a couple of the products, but I am just underwhelmed a little. I hope next month’s box is more exciting and I can’t wait to receive my Advent Calendar this month. My box this month was worth £58.33.

The Sneak Peak for November’s Box is that you should receive an 8ml tube of the NAOBAY Detox Oxygen Light Cream (worth £16.00).

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...

TAG - The Good, The Bad, The British

Photo: EnchantedIvyGifts.co.uk I was browsing my subscription videos on YouTube and I saw that EssieButton uploaded a new TAG video called The British Tag, and after watching it I decided I wanted to do the TAG too. I believe this TAG was created by BeautyCrush , so all credit is awarded to her. 1. How many cups of tea do you have a day & how do you take it? I drink around three cups of tea a day and I take mine with one small sugar and a bit of semi-skimmed milk. Tea is also the only hot drink I like. 2. What is your favourite part of a Sunday roast? My favourite part of a roast is the vegetables. I love kale & leak and broccoli! My Mum’s gravy is also to die for. 3. What is your favourite dunking biscuit? I don’t dunk biscuits anymore, but when I was younger I loved dunking Bourbons. If I was to dunk a biscuit now, I would probably choose either a Rich Tea or plain Digestive. 4. What is your quintessential British pastime? I love visiting ruins/m...
